Chief Executive's review

Experian has again delivered a strong performance driven by solid execution of our strategy. We are realising the benefits of investment in our global growth programme, which is increasingly apparent in our results. While the external environment remains uncertain, we are driving growth by pursuing the many opportunities open to us. For the second half, we expect organic revenue growth at least as strong as the first half. For the year as a whole, we reiterate our expectations of modest margin improvement and strong cash flow conversion.

Don Robert Chief Executive Officer
